CSM 1/32 Nieuport 17 early
« on: April 07, 2019, 03:57:24 PM »
Hallo, here are pictures of my finished CSM Ni 17 early (I still need to arrange a proper photo studio  ::) ). It's my first 1/32nd WW1 aeroplane completed and to paraphrase Des it was a learning experience. I have a late model Ni17 at first stages and an Albratros D.V started over two years ago standing by but first of all the LVG C.VI for the group build.
About this livery has been taken fromMarc Chassard monography on Ni17 and was one of the mounts of Paul Tarascon, I add a picture of the original taken from the internet.

Ciao
Giuseppe

Gorgeous results Giuseppe! I have found it to be very inspiring for my current build!

The spinner on the model reminds me of red nose day! That is a superb model - studio photos or not - it oozes quality in every way.

Thank you Stephen for your kind comment. In effect, the "cone de penetration" with flag colours was the decisive detail in my livery choice.

Very nicely done Giuseppe, the colors are striking. A great start into the larger scale arena, she's a beauty!
Cheers,

Thank you Lance, it's a great fun building the larger scale: not easyer, feeling the need for more details, but really relieving for eyesight and merciful for handling.
I think it will become my favourite.

It's great to see it finished, Giuseppe.  The 'cone de penetration' certainly makes it interesting.  Also the lack of national insignias on the top sides I believe, is unusual.
